6 FAQs about [Photovoltaic panel el detection principle]
How El test can help a PV manufacturer detect hidden defects?
Testing of modules using this phenomenon can detect hidden defects in the structure of PV cells. This method makes the current distribution visible in the PV module and helps detect defects. With the help of an EL test, a PV manufacturer can evaluate the structural quality of the PV cells or any other defects generated while handling.
How can El images be used to measure PV module defects?
The prevalence of multiple defects, e.g. micro cracks, inactive regions, gridline defects, and material defects, in PV module can be quantified with an EL image. Modern, deep learning techniques for computer vision can be applied to extract the useful information contained in the images on entire batches of PV modules.
What is PV power plant in-situ El testing?
In conclusion, PV power plant in-situ EL testing, particularly through innovative drone-based technologies, represents a paradigm shift in ensuring the performance and reliability of PV power plants.
Why do solar modules need El testing?
Due to its importance, solar module manufacturers frequently undertake EL testing twice during the manufacturing process. If left unchecked, cold soldering can develop into hot spots, lowering the module’s power and causing a fire risk. Figure 3: Sample module with soldering defects
How El test can help a PV manufacturer?
With the help of an EL test, a PV manufacturer can evaluate the structural quality of the PV cells or any other defects generated while handling. Defects that can be found from EL are as given below: Microcracks can create an electrical separation, resulting in inactive cell part. Determining the power loss caused by microcracks is difficult.
Why is El imaging important for PV power plants?
Having the EL images allows the site owner to have a baseline from which to work. Particularly, given that microcracks may also occur during the handling, installation, and operation of the solar asset. Thus, conducting EL imaging in-situ at the PV power plants is a good measure.
